None of those delicious fried, cheesy, and comforting foods are going to get you there. What you might get instead are unwanted breakouts and dry or flaky skin. A good beauty routine starts from within so you can skip buying that $100 moisturizer that you have been eyeing that promises you amazing results and glowing skin. Instead here five foods to kick start to your journey to a more beautiful you.


1. Wild Salmon Healthy eating habits always include ways to incorporate lean proteins into our meals and wild salmon is one of the best. Wild salmon is rich with omega-3 fatty acids, selenium, and vitamin D. This super food helps to keep your skin moisturized, shield your skin from sun exposure, and promotes strong bone health. Try to avoid the farm raised version of salmon because of the unhealthy dyes, higher levels of PCBs and possible use of antibiotics.


2. Yellow, Orange, and Red Fruits and Veggies These colorful fruits and vegetables such as blueberries, strawberries, carrots, lemons, raspberries, sweet potatoes, and tomatoes aren't just beautiful to look at they do even better work when eaten.
